Title: Inkjet printhead with adjustable bubble impulse
Inventor: NORTH ANGUS JOHN
IPC: B41J2/05
Filed: 2006-10-09
Granted: 2013-09-03
Abstract: An inkjet printhead with an array of nozzles (26) and corresponding heaters (10) configured for heating printing fluid (20) to nucleate a vapor bubble (12) that ejects a drop (24) of the printing fluid through the nozzle. Drive circuitry (22) generates an electrical drive pulse to energize the heaters (10) and is configured to adjust the drive pulse power to vary the vapor bubble nucleation time. By varying the power of the pulse used to generate the bubble, the printhead can operate with small, efficiently generated bubbles during normal printing, or it can briefly operate with large high energy bubbles if it needs to recover decapped nozzles.

Abstract: A closing device, consisting of a flexible or solid rapid sliding fastener connector and a flexible or solid track thereto, which the sliding fastener connector has an angular body longitudinally on its side edge. The median of the angular body of the sliding fastener connector is substantially orientated perpendicularly to the axis of the flat body of the sliding fastener connector or to the surface of the linen or wall attached to it. On the opposite side of the sliding fastener connector is either the extension of the linen which is an integrated part of the sliding fastener connector or an attach by contact to the linen or a longitudinal gap forming two elongated pellicles allowing contact and wrapping for a link to a linen or a wall. A track for sliding fastener connector designed to allow the penetration of the angular body of the sliding fastener connector inside of it between two walls, which their axis are substantially parallel separated by a gap allowing the slide of the sliding fastener connector in the track. A third wall in the track substantially orientated perpendicularly to the two substantially parallel walls while being spaced from the free edges of the two substantially parallel walls or at least spaced from the free edge of one sliding strip and connected to the other sliding strip, to allow passageway of the angular body of the sliding fastener connector, said sliding strips to be the two substantially parallel walls in the track, allow the possibility of a tight or releasable holding of the sliding fastener connector in the track by opposition to the angular body of the sliding fastener connector which forms a locking restriction to the angular body of the sliding fastener connector.

Abstract: A Coriolis mass flow sensor includes a flow sensor tube, a drive device situated relative to the flow sensor tube so as to cause the flow sensor tube to vibrate, and pick off sensors situated relative to the flow sensor tube so as to measure the twist in the flow sensor tube due to Coriolis force. A capacitive pick off sensor is disclosed that includes at least one conductive plate connectable to a first voltage potential and adapted to be situated adjacent the flow sensor tube which is connected to a second voltage potential. The conductive plate is positioned relative to the flow sensor tube so as to define a gap therebetween. The capacitance between the conductive plate and the flow sensor tube varies due to the relative motion of the conductive plate and the flow sensor tube when the flow sensor tube is vibrated. Electromagnetic, electrostatic, acoustic, and/or piezoelectric drives may be used to vibrate the flow sensor tube. The Coriolis mass flow controller may further include an integrated flow control device adapted to receive fluid from the flow sensor tube and provide flow control.
